Medical Xpress / Low-dose THC keeps breast cancer cells in tumor models from reverting to an aggressive state
Recent discoveries have revealed that breast cancer cells are more flexible than previously thought. Some can change from a differentiated state, when a mature cell has taken on a specific function, back to a more stem-like ...
Tech Xplore / Why adding AI agents to a system sometimes reduces its performance
Computer scientists worldwide have been developing a wide range of artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Some of these systems rely on an individual AI agent, while others consist of multiple interacting agents that exchange ...
Medical Xpress / Some hair loss in men is linked to weight loss drug use
Men already genetically at risk for the most common form of hair loss have a 7% added risk of losing their hair if they use drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound for type 2 diabetes and obesity, a new study shows.
Phys.org / Hubble tracks new decagon encircling Saturn's south pole
Recent observations with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have revealed a giant, evolving, 10-sided atmospheric wave encircling Saturn's south pole. This discovery marks the first time a large, regular-sided jet pattern has ...
Phys.org / Five-metal 2D catalysts could convert CO₂ to CO without needing an extra electrical boost
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is usually discussed as something the world needs to get rid of. Activities such as the burning of fossil fuels for daily use, including electricity and transportation, and industrial applications release ...
Phys.org / Biodegradable 'nanobone' could one day help regrow bone without painful grafts
For children born with cleft lip and palate, repairing gaps in the jawbone often means waiting until they are 10 to 12 years old before undergoing invasive bone graft surgery. University of Sydney researchers have developed ...
Dialog / Making superconductors thinner can change how they accommodate magnetic fields
What happens when a superconductor becomes so thin that electrons can no longer behave as if they were moving through an ordinary three-dimensional piece of metal? This question has been at the center of my recent work on ...
Phys.org / Trees use a 'muscle' to correct their posture—a newly discovered role for tension wood
A research team from INRAE and the University Clermont Auvergne has shown that trees are capable of correcting a curvature they detect in their stems through a specific biological process. In the study, young trees with bent ...
Phys.org / Geomagnetic superstorm shook GPS accuracy across the US—its timing may have averted agricultural losses
On Nov. 11, 2025, Earth experienced a severe geomagnetic storm triggered by solar flares and coronal mass ejections from an active sunspot region. While this kind of storm brings beautiful auroras admired in many areas around ...
Phys.org / Trapped light generates nanoscale magnetization
Using an engineered metasurface that traps light, Cornell researchers have demonstrated a new way to generate strong static magnetic fields without using external magnets or magnetic materials—an approach that could advance ...
Phys.org / Hidden DNA in medieval gospels reveals history of deadly livestock virus
Some of Europe's most well-known historic manuscripts, including the York Gospels, have proven to be biological time capsules for uncovering the 3,500-year history of the sheeppox virus (SPPV).
Phys.org / New 'devil flower' species discovered in Thai national park
Researchers have described a new species of leafless flowering plant found on the forest floor of a national park in western Thailand, and its otherworldly appearance has earned it a fittingly dramatic name: Thismia daemona, ...
